Apologies if this is somewhere else but couldn't find what I was looking for :)

just unlocked BF4 via a VPN (yes i know 10 hours early hardly any point :D)

Everything ultra, 1080p res, 2xMSAA. I did try 4xMSAA but the FPS was pretty shocking with an avg of 30, dipping to below 20 in some fights/areas and a max of 45

Min FPS of 33
Max FPS of 65
Avg during a good fight around 40

Im on a GTX 670 4gb clocked at 1202/7008 and max memory i've used is 2435MB

Kinda disappointing I was expecting more FPS but hopefully a driver update or two might fix that

using the latest drivers 331.65 if anyone is bored and wants to try their BF4 early use this thread: http://www.reddit.com/r/battlefield...best_way_to_get_early_access_using_proxy_all/

protip: start VPN, then start origin, goto the test area/campaign first then exit (via in game quit). Leave origin on but disconnect the VPN, join multiplayer and profit

Probably good to get a new thread TBH. That thread got a bit rank and it's got beta info in. Hopefully both vendors can get performance for this title up to scratch ASAP :).
 
^I'm all for it if this thread does actually end up with performance figures and not pointless gif wars followed by page upon page of the same circlejerk vram debate :)
 
its unofficially officially legit, anyway back on topic shall we?

max memory i've used is 2435MB , during the beta i used no more than 1800MB

This is the first game I own to use more than 1800MB of Vram, maybe the rumors are true and 2GB cards will suffer slightly. Another theory I have is that the amount of vram used is entirely based on the card EG: 2GB card gets to 1800MB ish, 4GB card uses more because it can.
Anyone with a gtx 670 2gb and bf4 that can confirm their usage?

haha I already crashed twice trying on Tuesday night. It was pretty tragic TBH. But I have faith in them to make it right.
Click to expand...

I seem to recall BF3 took a good 3 weeks to iron out the majority of crashes and as far as I know the "Disconnected from EA servers" error Still occurs

Some fun crashes I have already experienced:

DX11 crash - GPU has no spare memory, virtual memory free: ALL of it, available: ALL of it.. but it said my card has 0MB Vram and to get a card with atleast 512MB lol (Only happened once so hopefully a random glitch)

Changing graphic settings, hit apply, crash

Alt+Tab, crash

Bring up the console to enter the "Perfoverlay.enable / Perfoverlay.drawgraph 1" commands...yup you guessed it..CRASH

but when it works it seems like it's going to be fun, managed an entire round from start to finish and died more times than I care to reveal
